Kucinich Questioning Bush's Mental Health?
Falling into the "Physician, Heal Thyself" category, we have an Associated Press article entitled Kucinich Questions Bush's Mental Health. The Congressman from Ohio thinks that Bush's recent comments about Iran show that the President's mental health isn't all that good. It's a common theme from the Netroots, but when you look at the comment Kucinich was questioning, you have to wonder what the heck he is thinking. From the AP article:
He [President Bush - ed] said: "I've told people that if you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them (Iran) from having the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon."
Seeing as Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has vowed to destroy Israel using any means necessary, and that a direct attack on Israel by Iran would trigger overwhelming responses from the West, I understand precisely what President Bush was talking about. And Iran's intentions are not some right-wing fabrication, as people like Kucinich would like you to believe. Here's the lede from a CNN article on the subject:
TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iran's new president has repeated a remark from a former ayatollah that Israel should be "wiped out from the map," insisting that a new series of attacks will destroy the Jewish state, and lashing out at Muslim countries and leaders that acknowledge Israel.
So who's the crazy one again, Dennis?
